Who won: National Parking Platform

About this contract

Guildford Borough Council intends to join the National Parking Platform (NPP), a not-for-profit, government-backed initiative designed to modernise and simplify parking payments across participating local authorities.

The platform operates through a transaction-fee funding model and provides a centralised mechanism through which multiple approved parking service providers can facilitate parking payments on behalf of the Council.

The solution supports improved interoperabil
